“I used to start re-arranging my school uniform, hitching up my skirt to be more exciting-looking.”

“Of course, I remember when everybody was thin. It wasn't until I went to America in the Sixties that I saw anyone who wasn't skinny thin.”

“Let me give you an idea of Fifties Britain. The war had ended ten years before, and most people had returned to their gardens and allotments hoping life would revert to how it was before the hostilities.”

“The problem is that we have evil people who try to skirt the laws. And that's the problem.”

“I tried to find ways to express my style. And I think once I got to school, especially, I was like, Oh, now I can. I don't have to wear a denim skirt every day. I can kind of figure out what my voice is.”

“I think palazzos are very comfortable. It looks like a skirt, yet you can sit in them for hours.”
